What a cheap Code Geass ending copy. Not to mention the insane plot armor for alliance group and plethora of plot holes. I swear people watch this with their brains turned off
Big budget, big cast but hollow feeling. I’m hoping it does what Andor did for Star Wars but I’m only just holding on at this point
Worthless recap episode. What a let down
Am I the only one who is disappointed with the finale?
Not only Wanda is rewriting reality to stop Vision, she's actually rewriting reality to give a chance to Vision to explain things to ourselves!
In one reality, gimmicks are getting tiresome. And in the other, characters are just not accomplishing anything. They are just pretty much given information and we are getting that as exposition. The story is really advancing in a unsuccesful way. This is pretty much a game for us, where we are given clues (but never succesful plot points the script), and we are developing our own theories to create buzz for the series. In its intent to not reveal anything, and be completely unpredictable, no resolution will give WandaVision a sense of accomplishment. It will be just another event in the Marvel's calendar.
The show can be entertaining, but you can't say it isn't stupid.
This NEEDS to get better. Again its non stop cheese and no explanation to why this is set in the 50s and how Vision is alive. There should have been a much better intro episode
I cringed the whole time. I get what they were trying to do but none of it is done well. The one random creepy moment that seemed even a little effective is basically a rip off from Get Out. Also doesn't help the movies have done zero to get me invested in this couple. I honestly just want more development for Wanda as a character by herself.
AAAAnd they doubled down on the botched ending... I'm not in the loop with the series production but you better hope that there is a good excuse for them having to resolve the story like this. I don't mind that they did what they did here but it doesn't work if you play this after last weeks episode. The trajectory for this was all wrong and it's missing a lot of in between! Kinda hard to fall for the manipulative writing when you have to doubt what is being presented to you. And Sam growing old was not only cheesy pandering but a huge joke that had me laughing because of the unbelievably bad makeup.
Rushing an ending for a show after 15 years is NOT appreciated.
SRYSLY?! WTF?! What a cringe episode... :thumbsdown:
This has to be one of the worst series finale I have ever seen. It was really poorly written and poorly paced. There was no point in making this episode, the last one was fine as a series finale.
This being said, I'm gonna miss Sam and Dean.
Oh hell no!! This was just awful. What a let down.
Piss off. This was not the ending the series or the characters deserved after everything.
One of the worst finales to a series. All character arcs, build ups and growth abandoned so the brothers can regress to their season 1 self. Sam never mentions Eileen and Dean never talks about the circumstances of Cas's death. Other characters? Who are they? Only Sam and Dean make up this show. Family DOES end in blood.
Dang shit I hope not
This is an absolute failure on all fronts and the fact it is so highly rated disturbs me. Easily the worst episode of this show, and this has singlehandedly destroyed any remaining faith I had for the rest of this series. What a disgrace.
So...
What about whiterose's machine? Why did she kill herself? What was her plan?
What about Angela? How did WR Brainwash her? What did she show her?
What was the point of Tyrell?
Yes, there was a great plot-twist. Yes, I didn't see that coming. But what did it bring to the series, everything that has happened hasn't all of a sudden happened in a different perspective. It didn't really change the view on the show. Maybe here or there there might have been some signals that this new plot could've been detected. Unfortunatly the plot-twist didn't blow my mind (like in a 6th sense kind of way). It kind of leaves me searching for the reason why Sam thought this was the best possible ending...
Where did all the production-value go?
The first two episodes dragged me into the world of Star Wars, but after that it‘s all down hill to me. Acting just meh, almost no good looking alien races anymore, heck even the droid from this episode was a pesky human in a bad costume. Just as bad as both of those Twi‘leks and the horned guy - bad actors in bad makeup. I really hope they fix this soon.
Compared to previous episodes, this episode is not bad, but still dumbly written.
As usual, a supposedly professional team of mercenaries turns out to be incompetent just-for-laugh bollocks, as shown by one person destroying a droid for fun in a ship they know are extremely guarded by, well, droid's connectivity. And no one seems to be troubled with that. Apparently recklessness and naivety are traits commonly shared by supposedly 'fighters' in this show - we've seen people ranging from bounty hunters, ex-rebel shock trooper, and even the Mando himself, who consistently failed to notice obvious traps (eps 5), wasted their time for overly convoluted plans (eps 4), or simply appeared to took the same marksmanship class as stormtroopers (eps 3 & 5).
Oddly, for a ship supposedly to be extremely secure, barely any droids patrol the ship. Even when the ship was on full emergency alert. The droids conveniently only appear as distraction as the plot needs it; for a heist/rescue episode, this leaves no stake on breaching the ship at all.
Speaking of stake, the characters also consistently make questionable decisions. Despite knowing they are limited on time, they just waste it for squabbling between themselves, hunting for each other down to the last of it, instead of focusing on running away from the ship.
But the worst offender is our titular character.
The Mando turns out to be a Disneyfied, Sunday morning, family-friendly bounty hunter, as he refuses to hurt people from New Republic but oddly has no qualms killing/hurting people who happen to be on the side of other factions (stormtroopers, bandits, fellow professionals, or even just a person who happens to have a huge debt - eps. 1).
It appears that the "hunting" in bounty hunting is only legitimate, as long as it doesn't involve one of the "good guys". Good guys according to who? No in-universe explanation is given except that according to Disney, New Republic must be the good guys. This show seems to be the opposite of Star Wars: The Old Republic (the online game, not the single player RPG): where the game aligns bounty hunter in the "evil" faction just because Boba Fett worked for the Empire, this show aligns bounty hunter in the "good" faction just because Mando is the protagonist.
The Mando also always consistently failed to realize that leaving Baby Yoda alone always means a bad thing. I mean, this is his damn third time doing that.
That being said, the action is quite well-done. The Twi'lek girl is choreographed nicely. The Mando has some cool action with his gears. The ending has some tense, though the last order from Ran feels a bit cheap. Unfortunately, those still can't save the episode from its below-average screen writing.
